Running at Fort Wilderness?

[jimandami]

DH and I will be running the Marathon Relay in January and then staying at BWV for 7 nights for an adults only trip. We have decided this trip to try to see the things we haven't seen in many of our past trips, one of which is Fort Wilderness. I had the brilliant idea that maybe we could head over there for one of our training runs later in the week. Are there running trails anywhere over there?

There is a trail that goes between the Lodge/Fort but I usually just run on the sidewalks. I can get anywhere from a 3-7 mile run starting at the Lodge running the path then sidewalks usually to Meadows and back

You can get sooo many miles in Ft Wilderness alone. However, I tend to get bored running loops of loops. You can easily run from Ft Wilderness to Wilderness Lodge following the Disney Jogging Map. From the from of Wilderness Lodge, you can run from the north exit, cross World Drive, run Topiary Lane and you are at TTC. You have all of the MK parking lot that you can run depending on the time of day. You also have the Poly and GF that you can hit on the run. It really depends on the number of miles and what time of day....

Great info! We will be there 12/18-12/26 and I have a 12 miler I am missing while on the road tomorrow. I don't mind a couple loops since it will be my first time running there. Any suggestions for that distance? Two 6 mile loops?
